Answer:  6.77

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , Tax rate = 6.8%

To convert it into decimal or fraction , we divide it by 100 , we get

Tax rate =\dfrac{68}{100}=0.68

Now , Total amount = $9.95

Then, Tax amount = (Tax rate) x ( Total amount )

= (0.68) x (9.95)

= $6.766 ≈ $6.77  [approx]

Hence, the tax amount on $9.95 is 6.77.

Algebra There were 4 times the number of students in fourth grade at the basketball game.How many students attended the basketba
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

200 students attended the basketball game

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

Let

x ------> the number of students in fourth grade

s -----> the number of students at the basketball game

we know that

The number of students at the basketball game is four times the number of students in fourth grade

so

The linear expression is

s=4x -----> equation A

x=50\ students\ in\ fourth\ grade -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

s=4(50)

s=200\ students\ at\ the\ basketball\ game

therefore

200 students attended the basketball game

A truck with a heavy load drove from Boston to New York at 50 mph. After dropping of the load, it returned from New York to Bost
leva [86]

Answer:

175/3 or 58.333...

Step-by-step explanation:

This is fairly complicated but I will try to make it as simple as possible. I also apologize in advance for how impossible it is to make fractions look like fractions. I also had to insert a bunch of unnecessary parentheses just because the fractions that I can make are relatively inaccurate.

The distance between 2 cities can be represented as d.

Time is d/r if r is rate, so B->NY=d/50

Similarly,NY->B is d/70

Obviously the average speed is 2d/(d/50+d/70), this is just an average time

Now just remove the d and get (d/d)*2/(1/50+1/70)

You can now multiply by the LCM/LCM, which is 350/350.

After calculating you will get 700/12 which is 58.333...(This is how to enter into your RSM browser) Hope this helps. Sorry it is so late.

Jude says that the volume of a square pyramid with base edges of 7 in and a height of 7 in is equal to the volume of a cylinder
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Jude is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a square pyramid is given as:

V = a^2\frac{h}{3}

where a = base edge and h = height

Hence, the volume of the square pyramid with base edge of 7 in and height  of 7 in is:

V = 7^2*\frac{7}{3}

V = 114.3 in^3 ≅ 114 in^3

The volume of a cylinder is given as:

V = \pi r^2h

where r = radius and h = height

Hence, the volume of a cylinder with radius of 7 in and height of 7 in is:

V = \pi *7^2*7

V = 1077.57 in^3 ≅ 1078 in^3

Since their volumes are not equal, Jude is not correct.
